Narrated `Abdullah bin Mas`ud: A man came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's Apostle! What do you say about a man who loves some people but cannot catch up with their good deeds?" Allah's Apostle said, "Everyone will be with those whom he loves."

Hadith Commentary:
Love is also one of the greatest means of salvation.
However, along with love, obedience to the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and actions in accordance with the Sunnah are also necessary.
O seeker, walk steadfastly upon the path of the Sunnah; this road leads straight to Jannat al-Firdaws.
